Why not? You think 5pm local time is just before evening due to convention. Your "internal clock" doesn't care what the clock on wall says. Here, 17:00 would just become lunch hour.
- ars 16y agoSo you've traded timezones for lunchzones. Instead of calculating the timezone, you need to calculate when the local lunchtime is. There is no net benefit.
